Terrific idea and completed quilt. As a power company brat and former employee myself, this is great!!

A lineman has a very dangerous job. Early elementary grade children are especially receptive to safety talks/ demos from linemen decked out in their gear. :-)

I didn't have a pattern. I found a picture of a lineman and used an overhead projector to do the outline, then used it to blow up the image on a piece of poster board.

Yes he loves it. He is taking it to work to hang in his office.

Wow!
You could do that for a policeman, or Fireman, and auction it off for one of their fundraisers.
Very nice silouetting there
